In the summer evenings, I love to take walks in the park and just admire nature. As time goes on, I have noticed way more garbage being thrown onto the ground, rather than thrown out or recycled. People are becoming less appreciative of the environment. If we look at the ocean and see how the waste is affecting the animals. Animals become confused, they cannot tell the difference between waste and food. According to recycling-guide.org.uk, A lot of energy goes into making products that come from raw materials. However, recycling uses way less energy which then helps preserve natural resources. Also, the increased amount of waste is related to global warming (Recycling Is Important, 2008). All this could be fixed with the simple act of recycling and trying to make little changes in our daily lives to become more eco-friendly. A majority of salons are taking action to become more eco-friendly they have partnered with a business called Circle Green Salons, which aims to recycle almost everything that hairstylists and barbers throw out. I have also noticed in the salon that I am currently in, the lights at the salon are always on. I want to propose a change that will help the salon save more money and become more eco-friendly. By using LED lights.
In Studio 133, they have partnered up with an eco-friendly company called Green Circle Salon. Their mission is to provide North America with a solution to recover and repurpose waste from the salon so they can help keep people and the planet beautiful (About Green Circle Salons). Green Circle Salon is able to restore 95% of waste in salons, such as hair, foils, color tubes, aerosol cans, paper, and plastics. Shane Price is the man behind this amazing idea. Green Circle Salons officially began in 2009 and was made in Toronto. The hair that is recycled goes to the Alouette Correctional Center for Women in Maple Ridge. The women pack hair into stockings, these stockings filled with hair are used for oil spills. While the foils are cleaned and recycled, and chemicals are sent to a chemical waste plant. What is also really nice is Green Circle Salon makes weekly rounds to pick up the waste, so you do not have to remember to call them. Green Circle Salon has made me think about what I could possibly do or encourage Salon 133 to do for the environment, perhaps getting LED lights.
Studio 133 is a student-run salon. Along with that, prices for services are low. However, produce, hydro, and water do not come at a discounted price. Lighting is the most important tool for a salon, but I want to introduce LED lights to the salon because not only will it be good for the environment, but it will also save the salon money too. According to Led source, a salon called Vision Hair Salon has saved 78.5% of energy and money from switching to LED lamps (Hair Salon Lighting LED Retrofit Case Study). Some lighting can make hair colors seem too warm or too cool, however, LED lights give a more neutral light, so you can see how the color actually reflects in more realistic lighting. For environmental factors, LED lights have a way better light distribution focus than fluorescent lights. This means fewer lights will reduce the light consumption. Less energy consumption equals a happier environment , according to SEPCO (The Advantages of LED Lights for the Environment).
To convince the teachers and the dean of my idea I would first I would call a meeting with the instructors who help run the Hairstylist program, to talk to them about my idea. I would create an eye-catching PowerPoint about the benefits of LED lights. With my PowerPoint, I would have a few videos of salon owners who have switched from fluorescent lighting to LED. Better yet, I could find someone in Woodstock or any local town or city that uses LED lights in their salon. I would ask them to come in a give a small presentation about their positive experience with LED lights and how it has benefited their salon. If the teachers liked my idea and I had their approval to go to the dean to give my idea. I would use the same PowerPoint and bring in my guest speaker as well.
In conclusion, as inhabitants of the Earth, we need to take better care of it. The effects of improper disposal of waste are shown in our parks and oceans. Hairstylists and salon owners can become eco-friendly salons. The Green Circle Salon has made it possible for salons to use waste as benefit to the environment, like hair. Hair that is recycled can be used to help absorb oil from the oil spills. Foils, color, and color tubes are properly disposable in a chemical plant. As a student hairstylist, I have noticed that the salon uses a lot of energy when it comes to lighting. I want Salon 133 to invest in LED lights to not only save money but to help the environment as well. I would present my idea to the teachers of the hairstylist program with a PowerPoint and a salon owner who uses LED lights. If the teachers approve of this idea, I would take it to the dean to convince him of the benefit of LED lights and approve the funding. If we make an effort to take care of the planet, the planet will take care of us.
